Order Retrieval

In a nutshell

This project is about ordering words by their commonly perceived order. The order information is obtained from texts on the Web. Proximity search functionality is utilized. For example, given a set of words such as Earth, Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, Mars we will return a sorted sequence Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter .
